Lagrange multiplier and singular limit of double obstacle problems for Allen-Cahn equation with constraint
We consider an Allen--Cahn equation with a constraint of double obstacle-type. This constraint is a subdifferential of an indicator function on the closed interval, which is a multivalued function. In this paper we study the properties of the Lagrange multiplier to our equation. Also, we consider the singular limit of our system and clarify the limit of the solution and the Lagrange multiplier to our double obstacle problem. Moreover, we give some numerical experiments of our problem by using the Lagrange multiplier.
Singular limit of Allen-Cahn equation with constraints and its Lagrange multiplier
We consider the Allen-Cahn equation with constraint. Our constraint is the subdifferential of the indicator function on the closed interval, which is the multivalued function. In this paper we give the characterization of the Lagrange multiplier to our equation. Moreover, we consider the singular limit of our system and clarify the limit of the solution and the Lagrange multiplier to our problem.
On the convexity of optimal control problems involving non-linear PDEs or VIs and applications to Nash games (changed title: Vector-valued convexity of solution operators with application to optimal control problems)
Generalized Nash equilibrium problems in function spaces involving PDEs are considered. One of the central issues arising in this context is the question of existence, which requires the topological characterization of the set of minimizers for each player of the associated Nash game. In this paper, we propose conditions on the operator and the functional that guarantee the reduced formulation to be a convex minimization problem. Subsequently, we generalize results of convex analysis to derive optimality systems also for non-smooth operators. Our theoretical findings are illustrated by examples.
